Article Abstract

2D-TiCT MXene nanosheets intercalated with sodium ions (SI-TiCT) were synthesized and utilized in simultaneous adsorption and electrochemical regeneration with ciprofloxacin (CPX). The primary focus of this study is to investigate the long-term stability of SI-Ti3C2Tx MXene and to propose the underlying regeneration mechanisms. The successful synthesis of TiAlC, TiCT MXene, and SI-TiCT MXene was confirmed using X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Raman spectroscopy. Electrochemical regeneration parameters such as charge passed, regeneration time, current density, and electrolyte composition were optimized with values of 787.5 C g, 7.5 min, 10 mA cm, and 2.5w/v% sodium chloride, respectively, enabling the complete regeneration of the SI-TiCT MXene. In addition, the electrochemical regeneration significantly enhanced CPX removal from the SI-TiCT MXene owing to partial amorphization, disorderliness, increased functional groups, delamination, and defect creation in the structure. Thus, the synthesized nano-adsorbent has proven helpful in practical water treatment with optimized electrochemical regeneration processes.

The discharge of nuclear wastewater into the sea may pose a significant environmental and health risk due to radionuclides such as Cs and Sr. Consequently, the efficient removal of these nuclides has emerged as a focal point in the field of radioactive wastewater treatment. Traditional restoration methods, which rely on physical and chemical interventions as well as bioremediation, are economically burdensome and unsuitable for large-scale restoration efforts.

Early and accurate detection of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) is vital for cancer diagnosis and personalized treatment. Despite their clinical significance, the identification of CTCs remains challenging because of the biological complexity and lower concentration. Therefore, a cost-effective, and label-free electrochemical biosensor based on phenyl boronic acid functionalized graphene oxide-silica (PBA@GO-SiO) is developed to selectively recognize sialic acid-rich glycoproteins on HepG2 cells.

Amidst global sustainability imperatives, this study pioneers a solid-state regeneration strategy that transforms spent LiCoO (LCO) cathodes into high-performance materials via amorphous lithium iron phosphate glass (LFPg)-driven structural reconfiguration. Unlike conventional recycling that decomposes cathodes, our approach leverages LFPg's defect-rich framework, high ionic conductivity, and dynamic interfacial activity to directly reconstruct degraded LCO crystals. The LFPg acts as a multifunctional repair agent: creating Li diffusion channels through disorder engineering, eliminating oxygen vacancies via atomic oxygen transfer, scavenging impurities (e.

Herein, we developed a previously undescribed electrochemical nanoMIP-based sensor for the sensitive, reusable and accurate determination of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). Using a proprietary rapid and scalable method, hCG-selective polyacrylamide nanoMIP particles were produced within 2 h in high yields of 11 mg per 1 mL reaction batch with hCG-modified magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs@CHO@hCG). The MNPs were reusable for 5 sequential cycles of nanoMIP production.

Atomically dispersed and cluster copper (Cu) catalysts anchored on nitrogenated holey carbon frameworks have garnered increasing attention as promising platforms for the electrochemical CO reduction reaction (CORR), yet the structural evolution and mechanistic origin of selectivity and C-C coupling on Cu clusters remain elusive. Herein, we performed a comprehensive first-principles study of Cu clusters supported on CN substrates to elucidate their structural stability, electronic properties, and catalytic behavior toward C-C products. The Cu atoms stably bind to N sites, evolving from planar to 3D configurations with an increasing cluster size.
